Russia`s military operation in Ukraine has forced Warner Bros. to pause the release date of its film `The Batman` in the Vladimir Putin-led country.
“In light of the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine, WarnerMedia is pausing the release of its feature film `The Batman` in Russia,” a spokesperson for WarnerMedia said in a statement.
The spokesperson added, “We will continue to monitor the situation as it evolves. We hope for a swift and peaceful resolution to this tragedy.”
The DC adaptation was set to release in Russia this Friday, Variety reported.
Warner Bros.` decision of halting the release of Robert Pattinson-starrer `The Batman` comes hours after Disney decided to pause its theatrical releases in Russia.
